Madurai The Madurai Bench of Madras High Court has stayed a suspension order passed by the Nagercoil Bar Association against an advocate. He had attended court proceedings despite a resolution passed by the association to boycott the court proceedings in support of the farmers who were agitating against the new farm laws. The court was hearing the petition filed by R. Shunmughanandha Karthees of Colachel who said that he was suspended from the association. The members were preventing him from entering the premises and were also not allowing him to use the library, he said. He was not even served a copy of the suspension order, he said.The fear of being caught for traffic rule violation has indeed compelled many two-wheeler riders to wear helmets.
